BKLLC I Guess what happened here, there was no local account set up with this machine it was set up using that Office 365 emails account that was used as login user/password to this computer, upon deletion & Changing the office 365 that email is no more valid, but you should always get login using the local cached details with same Email account as login and the password as that is the only login and configured users, there are alternative methods and software you could enable local Administrator and try to create a new local standard or Administrator user in that machine.
update here if the case is different.

For some reason the old Office365 email and password is not working (not granting access). Either it wasn't cached or it got cleared when the user rebooted the PC before contact me.
I have no problem logging in from another PC to Office365 via web browser using the same ID/pswd, the account is still active on MS side.
I really need to get into this PCs because users committed cardinal sin by saving all their critical work on the Desktop instead of on the provided cloud folder.
I noticed that the drive has Bitlocker enabled as such can't be attached to another PC either.
So please whatever software tool you know that can help grant access to this PCs will be highly appreciated.
